I get very lightheaded and I feel off in my head. I am 16 weeks pregnant. I do get alot of headaches. WHAT is causing this? Blood pressure has been fine.

Hello,

Your symptoms may be a result of the cardiovascular and/or hormonal changes of pregnancy.  If you feel you might or have passed out, you should present to your ob/gyn to discuss this and they can pursue an appropriate work up.

Best regards,

Dr. Downing
